The village has a parish church, a village hall and a local pub all of which contribute to friendly community activities – fetes, pétanque competitions, pub quizzes etc. Tiverton, nine miles away, offers an excellent selection of local amenities including supermarkets and a host of restaurants, pubs and cafes. It also provides a good selection of schools, including Tiverton High School and the well-reputed Blundell’s Independent School.
